About Mercat Cross
Like many Royal Burghs, Culross also has a mercat cross to mark the place where a market would’ve taken place. Sitting off-centre within the cobbled square known as The Cross, the Mercat Cross is a mix of its original stone base and a 1900s unicorn sculpture. Culross is Scotland’s most complete example of a burgh of the 17th and 18th centuries. White-harled houses with red-tiled roofs line the steep cobbled streets which run from the market cross to the hilltop abbey. (Culross, Scotland)
